Job Description

About Us:

At BestStart Coast Boulevard, we believe in nurturing both the minds and bodies of our tamariki. We provide a balanced environment that promotes healthy eating, regular exercise, and a love for learning. Our large outdoor area is perfect for physical activities, while our approach also prioritizes quiet moments for rest and reflection. We are passionate about creating a space where children can thrive, and we're looking for a passionate caregiver or teacher in training to help us continue that mission.

This is a permanent, full-time position working 40 hours per week.

Key Responsibilities:

As a caregiver, you'll play a key role in providing exceptional care and education for our tamariki, helping them explore and grow in a safe, supportive, and fun environment. You’ll work closely with our passionate team, reporting to the Centre Manager, and contribute to the ongoing success of our centre. While an ECE qualification is not required, experience working with children under five and a natural affinity for young children is essential.

  • Provide exceptional care and education to tamariki, fostering their love for learning.
  • Encourage and empower children’s learning through exciting activities.
  • Actively participate in centre activities and assist with staff breaks when necessary.
  • Support daily operations across the centre, ensuring everything runs smoothly.


Benefits Include:

  • Learning through our Whare Ako online platform.
  • Professional development and career growth opportunities.
  • $2000 referral bonus for recommending a Qualified Teacher*.
  • Discounted childcare to make life a little easier.
  • Subsidised Southern Cross health insurance for your well-being.
